The gorge of Pantavrechi

One of the cleanest and most beautiful gorges in Europe.
Pantavrechi is not a classic example of gorge in the strict sense of the word. It is, actually, the narrowest part of the rushing Krikelopotamos River flowing between Mt Kaliakouda and Mt Platanaki. It lies in the village of Roska in the municipality of Domnista. The gorge is not over 100 m long, but its natural richness and beauty make alternative tourists feel as if they explored all the gorges of Greece in a few minutes.
It should be noted that not all of the local faunal and floral species have been fully recorded. Nevertheless, the region already boasts an impressive biodiversity. Numerous springs from the surrounding mountains join the Krikelopotamos River thus creating breathtaking scenery. Water sounds are heard everywhere. The rocks are verdant as they are covered by mosses. There are waterfalls, water curtains, which empty into small lakes that are 1 m deep.

Note: In the original version I had made a mistake in processing, so I restored the exposure at its pre-processing mode in order to be more natural and effective! Thank you for stopping by.

The slow speed gave you a nice movement on the water... but someplaces the photo is overexposed... and that's a problem.
However, the whole photo looks nice and good for TE.
But you could improve a bit the photo.

Hello Athanasios! One of the most interesting aspects of photographing a waterfall is that of deciding what shutter speed to use to capture the feeling of motion. I honestly think that between a 1/4 to a 1/2 of a second provides some of the most interesting results in stopping the action but yet providing the feeling of flow in the water. Your capture here is very nicely done in that aspect. Thanks for sharing!

I looked to your original picture, you did very good with this picture, clarity and sharpness are very good.
Lovely waterfall, excellent freeze it water through the F/8 and the tripod.
Composition and colours are lovely, I like this one.
Very well done.

Hello Athanasios,
One often represents Greece like a dry country. Your image contradicts and corrects this idea. I adore this fall and the framework where you captured it. It could be in a tropical environment. Good work.
Have a nice day

Hello Athanasios,
this is a beautiful place! What I like the most is where the water falls at the bottom. It makes a beautiful whitish current.

The left part of the picture is really burnt out. An easy way to address this issue would be to simply crop a bit on the left which would help the composition as well I think. I'd crop just a bit on the right as well.
Best regards,
Marc

Hello Athanasios
We do love our waterfalls, this one is so much better than your original, the composition is much better. The water is flowing nicely and the rock detail is also spot on. Will have to look this up when i am in Greece again.

This is a very peaceful and serene image. I can just feel the coolness of the gorge on a hot summer day. Exposure looks to be right on the money even though there is a small hot spot. Well composed and presented.

I like waterfalls,I really enjoy in this kind of landscape!Here,I like very much the effect you have given tothe water,with a perfect pose of 1/2 second,I like how the water appear like a transparent curtain,very nice!And I like the green vegetation around the fall!Very well framed too!
